Hey @Syeda Aiman Ali:, this is a well-developed topic, well done. The only thing that I would note, is that your chapter is quite content-heavy, and contains many paragraphs over 3-5 sentences, if you have a look at the rubric 'here' you will see that is part of the marking criteria. It might be worthwhile to break up some paragraphs into smaller ones, I noticed that when you are describing the theories, you explain the theory, and then apply its relevance. You don't need to do this, you can mention your theory, and then provide a link for more details regarding this topic, then you can use your word count to focus on its relation to the theory as opposed to trying to explain the theory and then the provided its relevance. I hope this makes sense, might be worthwhile chatting with James about this, but this was the advice I was given by him. -3230259.

The topic development submission has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is below, plus see the general feedback page. Please also check the page history for changes made whilst reviewing the chapter plan. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Marks are available via UCLearn. Marks are based on the latest version before the due date.
Adopt closer alignment between sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings
Aim for 3 to 6 top-level headings between the Overview and Conclusion, with up to a similar number of sub-headings for large sections
Use default heading formatting (i.e., avoid bold, italics, underline, changing the size etc.)
Avoid having sections with only 1 sub-heading – use 0 or 2+ sub-headings
Usually an "Introduction" section isn't necessary because the Overview should do this job and, if there is additional detail, consider using more more descriptive heading(s)
A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box at the start of this section. Add an image to the scenario to help attract reader interest.
A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is planned
The description does not refer to any psychological theory or research
The description looks like unacknowledged genAI content; if so, it is a violation of academic integrity
Closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings is recommended
The focus questions may be overly specific; consider refining to a simpler set of questions that directly address the sub-title using the best psychological science
Partial development of key points for some sections, with some relevant citations
For sections which include sub-sections, include the key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings
Strive for an integrated balance of the best psychological theory and research about this topic, with practical examples
It is unclear whether the best available psychological theory and research has been consulted in the preparation of this plan
I recommend using the Studiosity service and/or a service like Grammarly to help improve the quality of written expression such as checking grammatical and spelling errors
Very brief description about self – consider expanding
Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn. This is not required, but it can be useful to interlink your professional networks.

Hey Syeda! I really like this topic choice. I personally love a good morning routine because it keeps me motivated and happy!
I thought I'd give some guidance for potential enhancement for your book chapter.
I like your attention-grabbing scenario, it's very relatable! However, consider including a specific image that represents a calm morning to assist the audience in imagining what a good, healthy morning looks like.
You may also want to expand on the implications of what a poor morning routine can do to mental health and productivity. Here is a helpful link for that: DOI: 10.1111/peps.12419
I really like your section on habit formation especially with regard to the habit loop model, it breaks up behaviours into something that appears manageable which is important for many people! I found a Ted Talk on habit formation, it focuses on starting small and then building up to bigger habits which I think could be useful for you in either this section or as an external link for you chapter. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdKUJxjn-R8
In terms of theoretical application, consider delving into how these theories apply to different personally traits. For example, someone may be more willing to go for a walk in the morning compared to someone who would prefer to watch a tv show due to their differences in determination. I found an interesting study that examines the differences in physical exercise preference based on personality traits. I found it interesting that agreeableness can influence someone's preference for aerobic exercise!
This study is important for your study as it places value in personalising behaviour change interventions and how personality can influence motivation. Here is the link: doi: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2019.e01459

Hey, I find this topic really interesting! Reading over your book chapter, I was reminded of a book called 'The 5 AM Club' by Robin Sharma, which stresses the power of starting your day early and how it impacts your wellbeing. I thought you might want to consider adding it as an external link :)

This chapter has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page. Please also check the chapter's page history to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing through the chapter. Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.
Overall, this is a very good to excellent chapter. It successfully uses psychological theory and reasonable use of research to address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem.
Very good use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims
In some places, better use could be made of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
Move embedded external links to non-peer-reviewed sources into the External links section
For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits
Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent/very good/good/reasonably good/basic
Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes
Layout
The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections
Grammar
The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags)
Reasonably good use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding more interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text even more interactive. See example.
No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding in-text links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
Good use of figure(s)
No use of table(s)
Reasonably good use of feature box(es)
Good use of scenarios, case studies, or examples
Good use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s)
The quiz questions could be more effective as learning prompts by being embedded as single questions within each corresponding section rather than as a set of questions at the end
Good use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
Add more links
Very good use of external links in the "External links" section

The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's UCLearn site. Written feedback is provided below, plus see the general feedback page. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below. If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.
The correct title is used, but the sub-title (or a shortened version of it) is not used, as the name of the presentation. This would help to convey the purpose of the presentation and be consistent.
A brief written description of the presentation is provided. Expand.
